Ingredients
- 4 slices white bread
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the slices of white bread on a clean cutting board.
Using a sharp bread knife, trim off the crusts from each slice of bread to create neat, square pieces.
Cut each slice diagonally to form two equal triangles.
Arrange the triangles in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the bread is toasted on one side and lightly golden.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and use tongs or a spatula to flip each triangle over.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the second side is golden and crisp.
Remove the melba toast from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Serve as is, or pair with your favorite spreads, cheeses, or dips.
